Interleukin-6 and the acute phase response. | | | Initial studies have established that the acute phase response does occur in poultry, much as in other species and that SAA is likely to be one of the more useful APP [10, 11]. | | | The use of Hp is becoming established in a wide variety of such studies where information on the acute phase response adds substantial value to the interpretation of the experimental outcome. |

| | Two distinct patterns of proliferative response were found in the majority of patients: a diverse pattern, in which synovial fluid responses were greater than peripheral blood responses for all antigens tested; and a restricted pattern, in which peripheral blood responses to some antigens were more vigorous than those in the synovial fluid compartment. | | | We observed a striking association between the pattern of proliferation and the acute phase response; those patients with a high acute phase response exhibited a diverse pattern, whereas those with little or no acute phase response tended to show a restricted pattern of responses to the antigen panel. | | | This was supported by studies of serial synovial fluid and peripheral blood samples from three patients, in whom a high acute phase response was associated with a diverse pattern that reverted to a restricted pattern when the acute phase proteins normalized. |

| | The induction of an acute phase response using the glycolipid lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a model for sepsis and septic shock, clinical syndromes still leading to death of humans, even in Western countries. | | | For a general introduction see: Lipopolysaccharide challenge as a model for the acute phase response. | | | In the Human and Animal Physiology Group we use a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge as model to induce the acute phase response. |

| | Thus, the response of rats to acute inflammatory injury in the lung induced by ozone is similar to that observed during respiratory infections or trauma associated with surgery. | | | , a response that was also mediated by inducible nitric oxide synthase. | | | These data suggest that this inhaled irritant induces an acute phase response. |

| | The Diet-Induced Pro-Inflammatory State (Part 4 of 6) |
| | IL-1 is particularly potent at generating the acute-phase response, and research has demonstrated that peripheral administration of IL-1 leads to all features of the acute-phase response. | | | To understand the physiological process that generates the acute-phase response, it is important to first know that modern anatomical studies have revealed that about 70% of vagal fibers are afferent - quite different than what is presented in standard neuroanatomy books. | | | so there is no question that the sickness response is neurologically generated. |

| | The second important aspect of the acute phase response is the radically altered biosynthetic profile of the liver. | | | Functionally, SAAs are small apolipoproteins that associate rapidly during the acute phase response with the third fraction of high-density lipoprotein (HDL3), on which they become the predominant apolipoprotein. | | | It is important to consider the acute phase response (and inflammation) as a dynamic homeostatic process that involves all of the major systems of the body, in addition to the immune, cardiovascular and central nervous system. |

| | Acute-phase response |
| | The complex series of reactions initiated in response to infection, physical trauma, or malignancy is called the acute-phase response (APR). | | | The local inflammation in both cancer and infection is accomppanied by APR upon activation by cytokines (Cavaillon & Duff 1999). | | | These reactions aim to prevent ongoing tissue damage, isolate and destroy the infective organism and activate the repair processes necessary to restore the host/organism’s normal function (Baumann & Gauldie 1994). |
